I want to do a yoga party for my 5 year old. She takes a class and enjoys it?
However, none of her friends have experienced yoga, and neither have the moms. Would they find it weird and not bring their kids? Also, would they treat my daughter differently since she’s doing something they don’t have experience with?
My daughter takes soccer also, and we’ve consider that idea, but she’s not competitive at all, and the party is a little too much for her calm personality. They are also booked back to back for the month.
Just to clarify, a yoga party is a party for kids to run around and do animal poses using a lot of imagination.

We have a daughter who just turned five and we had a big party – and I have to say that I don’t know how well it would have gone if we had made them all calmly stretch and breathe and all that. They just wanted to run around and scream – it’s a party!
I don’t think the kids would treat her differently – but most five year olds I know really wouldn’t enjoy yoga. You want everyone to have a good time at the party. Your daughter can do yoga at her regular class time.
that sounds boaring for the other kids! and not social. Soccer, they would be all over the place, plus if one of them get hurt under your care, you are responsible for the bill or lawsuit! Do a themed party, like princeses, or a dress up tea party, wii party, what characters/movie, tv, are popular now that she likes and others?
Kids just want to run around and have fun. Your girl may love yoga but with the other kids never experiencing it, they may find it boring. Just let the kids let loose and be kids.
I think maybe a more traditional party idea would be better, so everyone can be involved. If some kids have never done yoga they might feel on a back foot. But if your little girl loves yoga why don’t you do some easy yoga games?
That sounds like a really cool idea! They might find it unusual, but I would hope that they would not be closed-minded about it. I am a children’s musician & I can tell you that people are so happy to have us at their parties because they often say that it is not the same old baloon animal, face painting stuff that they see over & over again at their child’s friends parties.
If I were in your position I would speak with your yoga instructor and see how he or she is with working with a whole group of kids at once. If the instructor is great with the kids then it should be an overall positive experience.
Kids love trying new things. It is true that they do love to run around at that age, so I would not make this a full hour of yoga. And thanks for clarifying that it is geared towards imaginative play.
I would think that most parents would probably be more willing to bring their kids if they feel that they are not going to be pressured into getting on the floor themselves. So if you do decide to have the yoga party, make it clear on the invitations that it is for the kids.
If the parents are going to hang out & watch it would be nice to put out nice fruits (or maybe some cheese or deserts) and tea or coffee for the parents to sit & relax. Your child’s friends’ parents might find this to be a nice change of pace. People often thank me for entertaining the kids while they are able to sit & relax over a cup of coffee or tea with other adults while their kids have fun.

I hope that your daughter has a really great party!
